Une femme comme Eva

Considering the age of this film, I was surprised to discover the topic and story dealing with relevant issues and giving an interesting reflection of society and its attitudes towards women's rights, feminism and gay issues.

Acting is generally fine but for Ms. Schneider (Lilian the lover) who is overly reserved as if she's embarrassed to act in the movie.

The story is very interesting and believable: a regular housewife going on vacation with her female friend, a gift from her husband. On vacation she meets a woman and falls in love. That's when the drama begins.

One of the first times that such issues were dealt with in a positive manner.

The story is weak. The Dutch synchronisation is one of the worst in Dutch moviemaking. Maria Schneider obviously had also no faith in this project, considering her very poor performance. Even Monique vd Ven, a well known and appreciated actress had no good , believable lines, and was not fit to this already poorly written scenario. Pity for Maria Schneider: If this feminist director would have watched the movie : Profession, Reporter from Antonioni, she would have learned that a male director good do much more with a feminist theme. Waste of time to watch this movie !
